    Default 24 Hours Without Water?

    I'm in a situation where I'm going to have to break down all of my equipment and relocate it for about 12-24 hours. I'm using a 12 site ebb and gro hydroponics system. Are my plants going to be fubar if they miss a days worth of watering?

    Exposing roots to air is great for the plant since it will be getting loads of oxygen. The down side is, exposing roots to air until the dry will kill the roots and then your plant. If you will be able to mist them a couple times with a spray bottle you should be fine but if not you're taking a gamble...

    I don't think the plants will live without water for very long. 6-10 hours?

    Charge a battery backup unit and use that.

    Avoid it, if possible.

    Allyou got to do is just hand water them! But on the flip side as long as there not trees 24hr is plenty fine

    Hey thanks for the replies. I was able to get everything broken down and stashed away, then re-assembled with out the plants looking much worse for ware. I watered the plants by hand a few times and they look just fine now. I guess that should have been common sense, but thanks for pointing it out to me.
